    When I was at school in the 1970s, mates would fit Turbo chargers to their 2-stroke 125s & 250s.

    Shocks weren't up to the power.

    Tyres weren't up to the power.

    Drive chains weren't up to the power.

    Riders weren't up to the power.

    Lost a few mates through their total stupidity.

    I know this isn't the same however do be careful.

    They are really quick little things.

    I used to ride with someone who had one, accelerated damn quick and sounded wicked when doing so (factory exhaust)

    Too bad he had so much problems with it.
    Sorry, the wink was meant to indicate sarcasm

    Nope, max piston speed. Metallurgy has everything to do with it, compression very little. The pistons are tiny, the stroke is short, so the conrods are correspondingly low in mass. The have to stop and reverse at TDC and BDC and the rods stretch and gudgeon pins bow. The less mass to reverse the lesser the force, but to make any power you have to rev the tits off them.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

    What doubting Thomas's? Maybe Coyotes post, that's it. Others are just enthused and want to see pics. Like me.

    No he doesn't, he's doing something much more interesting

    I didn't doubt, I'm just amazed that someone on here has done it. Keep on hearing others asking about it, even did so myself in the noob days on here

    Hi,

    They are awesome looking trick bikes esp the SP ones but be very careful with it as those engines are hand grenades.
    The GSXR250RR drop valves and lunch them selves - heard this from two different motorcycle mechanics one at a wreckers and one at another shop that sold one to a female staff member. It cost them many thousands a few years back.

    Best to stick with a CBR250, but I guess it's too late now.

    Good luck.

    Regards
